Concern
Squeaking/creaking noise from the front of the vehicle while the steering wheel is fully turned.
Technical Background
The ribs of the outer CV boot may contact one another when the steering wheel is fully turned. This has the potential to create a squeak or creak noise. The noise may be more prevalent in wet weather.
Service Procedure
If the noise is determined to be coming from the outer CV boot ribs coming in contact with each other, no additional work is required. Explain to your customer that this is a normal condition that may be more noticeable in wet weather.
Note: This contact does not affect the service life or the function of the components and is considered normal. Do not replace parts for this concern.
